List of Ingredients
1 cup chunky peanut butter
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup powdered sugar
3/4 to 1 cup crushed (thin) pretzel sticks
1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
In a 1-quart glass measure, combine peanut butter and butter. Heat in a microwave oven on high power about 30 to 40 seconds until butter melts. Stir with a fork until well-blended. Stir in powdered sugar until well-mixed, then stir in in pretzels until well-blended.
Using a small automatic-release scoop (about 1-inch diameter), shape into balls (about 24 to 26 total). Place on a wax paper-lined jelly-roll pan and refrigerate at least 1 hour (cover with foil if refrigerating longer).
To dip candies, in a 2-cup glass measure, combine chocolate and oil. Heat in a microwave oven on 50 percent power about 1 to 2 minutes or until melted and smooth when stirred.
Using a fork, dip balls, one at a time, in melted chocolate, shaking off any excess. Place on wax-paper-lined jelly-roll pan. Refrigerate until set. Store, covered, in plastic container in refrigerator. Makes 24 to 26 candies.
